The truck driver who died when his tanker hauling gasoline crashed under I-95 on June 11, 2023 was unable to maintain control on the Cottman Avenue off-ramp, the NTSB says. No exact cause for the crash was issued, however, as the investigation continued.

The NTSB's initial report on Thursday said that the"posted speed limit on I-95 in the vicinity of the crash was 55 mph, and the Cottman Avenue off-ramp was posted with a 25-mph speed limit and truck rollover warning sign." However, the report didn't say how fast the tanker truck was going at the time of the crash.

Online photos of the off-ramp prior to the crash show two yellow speed limit signs and a rollover risk sign prior to a sharp curve."All aspects of the crash remain under investigation while the NTSB determines the probable cause, with the intent of issuing safety recommendations to prevent similar events.". Permanent repairs to the collapsed overpass will take place while drivers use the temporary lanes.
